Trump Mobilizes National Guard to Address Anti-ICE Protests in Los Angeles

President Donald Trump has ordered 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles to address ongoing protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids. The decision comes amid rising tensions in the city, which Trump described as experiencing "lawlessness."

The protests have been organized by activists who oppose the recent immigration sweeps and the deployment of the National Guard. Demonstrators have called for a third day of protests this Sunday, expressing their anger over the government’s actions.

This move by the Trump administration highlights the deep divisions in the country regarding immigration policies. Supporters argue that the deployment is necessary to restore order, while opponents see it as an escalation of aggressive tactics against immigrants and their advocates.

The situation in Los Angeles is part of a larger national debate over immigration enforcement and the role of local law enforcement in these efforts. As the protests continue, many are watching closely to see how the situation unfolds and what impact it may have on communities across the nation.
